Tropica aquacare topped with?

[rudirudi]

Hi
Been looking at what substrate to use,initially considered Amazonia,but found other people have had good results with other materials.Tropica aquacare seems popular,tropica suggests 1cm covered with gravel (1 cm seems a bit stingy )what gravel would you top it with,and could you top it sand,possibly black limpopo,more catfish friendly.Has anyone used Seachem flourite blacksand.

You could always mix it with a fine gravel, or even soil to get a deeper fertile substrate layer. You can then cap with sand, or a fine gravel.
